Very happy that we chose this particular tour! The guide Natalia was very professional and pleasant. She discussed points of interest as we drove to the Fado restaurant. We also stopped at a beautiful viewpoint. The car was comfortable and we enjoyed the area of the city that we drove through. The staff working in the restaurant are very welcoming and we enjoyed trying the foods. The Fado singers and musicians were amazing! This was just a wonderful experience!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a true pleasure to share this special evening with you. I’m delighted you enjoyed the scenic drive, the viewpoint, the warm atmosphere of the restaurant, and of course the magic of Fado. Your kind words mean a lot to me. Wishing you beautiful memories of Lisbon, and you will always be most welcome back! Warm regards, Natalia
While we did enjoy our night and our guide was very nice, it was a lot of money to spend for a brief city tour and dinner. I will say the music was amazing and the dinner was good (and Natalia made sure to ask them to prepare a vegan dish, which I’m grateful for). I just think it could be done for far less.
Dear Brittany_G, Thank you very much for your honest feedback. I’m truly happy you enjoyed the music and that the dinner worked well for you — especially the vegan option. I’m sorry to see the experience rated three stars, and I completely understand that pricing is always a personal perception. I would just like to gently clarify what is included in this private experience. The evening combines a guided panoramic tour of Lisbon with private pick-up and drop-off, followed by a full live Fado performance by top musicians — presented in four sets over approximately 2.5–3 hours. The dinner is a complete traditional menu: Portuguese starters (olives, homemade hummus, local bread, regional cheese, chouriço), a main course of choice (meat, fish, or vegetarian), dessert, water, wine, and coffee. (The vegetarian/vegan menu may differ slightly from the traditional one) I completely agree that it’s possible to organize parts of the evening independently — for example, choose a restaurant by your own and take an Uber — and it can be significantly cheaper than a private tour. What you’re paying for here is the full private experience: the planning, coordination, and professional guiding that turns a dinner and a show into a seamless cultural night, with context and storytelling that helps you understand what you’re seeing and hearing, not just move from point A to point B. I truly hope Lisbon left you with beautiful memories — and, most importantly, the sound of Fado still in your heart. Warm regards, Natalia Natalia Portugalia Tours
If you want a private guided service to a superb Fado restaurant and entertainment, we strongly recommend Natalia to guide you. She is very knowledgeable, most helpful and passionate about Lisbon .We enjoyed our time with her learning about the Lisbon culture, heritage and people.
Dear Christine, Thank you very much for your kind words. I’m so happy you enjoyed the evening and the Fado experience, and that it helped you feel the spirit of Lisbon and its culture. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back to Lisbon again in the future. Warm regards, Natalia Portugalia
Our private Fado tour with Natalia was one of the most memorable nights of our trip. The local restaurant in Alfama was pure charm — cozy lights, the aroma of Portuguese food, and voices that gave us goosebumps. The young Fado performers were so talented and emotional that we completely forgot about time. The last part of the show ran late, but we were so glad we stayed — it turned into an unforgettable mix of surprises and heartfelt improvisations. The owners personally welcomed us, making us feel like family. Natalia was always around, quietly making sure everything ran perfectly, yet letting us enjoy the moment on our own. It was more than just a dinner — it was an exclusive, personalized experience that felt like discovering the real soul of Portugal.
Thank you so much, dear Jackson, for this wonderful review! I’m truly happy you enjoyed our private Fado tour in Lisbon and the authentic Fado dinner in Alfama. It was a special night — the music, the atmosphere, and your openness to the experience made everything flow perfectly. I’m glad the late improv part of the show became such a highlight. You’re always welcome back for another Lisbon Fado experience whenever you return to Portugal!
Natalya is a very passionate and knowledgeable guide. She took us to a nice overview of the city before the show. Gave us good advice at Fama d Alfama Fado restaurant- regarding food and what to expect. We started with traditional Portuguese appetizers and wine. Beef filet was incredibly tender. There were 4 fado performances throughout the evening. Performers were amazing, including guitar players, especially Portuguese guitarist. After the show we had a nice short walk through the Alfama neighborhood. Natalya still showed us some more city sights before dropping us off at the hotel. Amazing evening and experience. Highly recommend
Dear dracis, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this beautiful review! I’m so happy to know you enjoyed the evening, the Fado, the food, and our little journey through Lisbon. It was truly a pleasure spending the evening with such wonderful people—your kindness and curiosity made the experience even more special for me too. Hope to see you again in Portugal someday! Warmest wishes, Natalia Portugalia
Great experience. Combined tour with famous show. Fado restaurant was wonderful with good service, food and music. Natalia our guide was caring and knowledgeable and drove us through the city. B4 and after. Would definitely recommend this tour
Dear Anuj, Thank you so much for your kind words and 5-star review! I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour and Fado evening—it was a pleasure guiding you through Lisbon and sharing this special experience. Hope to welcome you back to Portugal someday! Warm wishes, Natalia Portugalia
My husband and I booked the Fado tour with Natalia, and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our trip. Natalia took us to a beautiful viewpoint to watch the sunset and shared the history of the city and of Fado itself, which made the whole experience even more meaningful. The dinner was fantastic — incredibly tasty, with a wide variety of dishes that gave us a real taste of Portuguese cuisine. And the Fado show… just wow. Even though we don’t speak Portuguese, the emotion came through so strongly. I even teared up a little. It was powerful, heartfelt, and truly unforgettable. We highly recommend booking this tour — it’s an authentic cultural experience you really shouldn’t miss
Thank you so much for your beautiful words! I'm truly touched that this evening left such a deep impression on you. Fado really is the voice of the Portuguese soul, and I’m so happy I could share it with you in such a meaningful way. It was a pleasure spending the evening with you both — from the sunset views to the emotional power of the music. I hope our paths cross again someday here in Portugal! Best regards, Natalia Portugalia
The views of the city were great. The Fado show was interesting. Our guide was young and very nice although it was difficult at times to understand her.
Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad you enjoyed the views and found the Fado show interesting. I appreciate your understanding, and I’m committed to improving my English so I can give you my best next time! I hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable experience! Warm regards, Natalia
This is the second year in a row we have visited Portugal, and of course with our favorite guide in Lisbon - Natalia. This time we decided to attend the Fado show that Natalia had so highly recommended to us last year. It was a delightful experience. I highly recommend this tour to all fans of culture and art. We had a wonderful time, enjoyed a delicious dinner and talented performers. The cherry on the cake was a visit to the viewpoint under the bright starry sky and a ride through the night town. Thank you, Natalia, for a unique experience and see you on our next visit to Portugal. We look forward to more exciting programs))))
Thank you so much for your kind words and for making me your guide for the second year in a row! It’s always a pleasure to share the magic of Lisbon and Portugal with you. I’m thrilled you enjoyed the Fado show, the delicious dinner, and the starry night views. I can't wait for next time—there's always something new and exciting to explore. See you on your next adventure in Portugal! Kindly, Natalia Portugalia
